Hello, I’m Jodi Neal
Even as a little girl I was concerned with aesthetics – whether it was the composition of my dinner plate or the typography on a billboard. As I got older, I began to notice boutique branding, I silently criticized roadside logos and I became keenly aware of the various textures and color of clothing. Not necessarily common for a young adult but certainly helpful in deciding a career path. These traits led me into the field of graphic design, eventually getting my bachelor’s degree in visual communications. I quickly became passionate about grids and hierarchy. To this day I still love a good infographic but I’m now just as interested in strategy – building a brand, executing a marketing plan and just generally seeing through the weeds to solve a problem. I also love art directing – whether its my three kids or a 70-person photo or video shoot. Oh, and most importantly I love ending the evening with a good margarita.

Hello, I’m Theresa Johnson
Life for me is all about relationships and making connections. I’ve worked in brand communications and philanthropy for decades at national and local levels. Branding is a passion and being able to uncover the points of distinction for individuals and companies is a passion. As a wife and mother of five, I value my time and choose carefully. My work, my relationships and quality of life are my focus. Traveling, running and conversations over great cocktails and food are essential aspects in my life. No matter where I am, there’s always time to talk to a stranger, enjoy a great glass of wine and discover the nuances of life. I hope you’ll invest in me and Distilled Communications to take your brand to the next level. |
